It has been known worldwide that 16 ounces are equivalent to a pound. But then, people are confused when a presented problem asks how many pounds are in a given number of ounces.
You simply change the equation. 16 oz = 1 lb
1 oz = 1/16 lb
You asked how many pounds are there in 20 ounces. We can easily solve it by multiplying 1/16 with 20!
1/16 x 20 = 5/4, or 1 1/4.
There you have it. Hereafter, there are 1 1/4 pounds in 20 ounces.
